CSC's solution extends the Digital Oilfield by adding business intelligence functionality, as well as enabling optimization through modeling, planning, and analytics. iStore and CSC are teaming to develop and deliver the solution worldwide. As a global leader in providing technology-enabled solutions and services, CSC opens new distribution channels and opportunities for iStore's software products and technology. “We are very excited about working with CSC to expand and deliver iStore's Digital Oilfield offerings,” said Barry Irani, iStore's president and CEO. “Our vision and direction are a natural fit -- we strive to help our customers in the petroleum industry achieve better results by providing innovative technology and business solutions.” Robert Welch, president of CSC's Chemical, Energy and Natural Resources Services Group, stated, “For years, energy and production companies have struggled to obtain faster access to field information and to make productive use of the tremendous volume of digital data already in their possession.
